Thoughts for those in Las Vegas and Everywhere…

Hello To My Readers…..
(I think we can finally all begin to agree that #guncontrolnow must happen!)
The right to bear arms is coming at a horrible, horrible cost…..

I had another blog topic planned for today, I will likely get to it tonite or tomorrow after completing others web work but, the news of the Las Vegas shootings this morning, really made me need to express somethings about the world we now live in. I will do my due diligence especially in regard to the shooting in Vegas to not make it about Politics, and to be honest I hope it has nothing to do with politics.(BUT I won’t lie and candy coat the fact that I think the current political environment, has bred more hate)However one thing we all must admit now in 2017 as we prepare to soon enter 2018 is that since the election of Donald Trump violence on our own soil as escalated.

AGAIN , AS MUCH AS I DISLIKE TRUMP , I DO KNOW HUMANITIES ISSUES WITH VIOLENCE AND HATRED DID NOT BEGIN WITH HIM, SO PLEASE BE SURE TO SLOWLY READ AND UNDERSTAND TODAY’S MESSAGE.

***ALSO LET ME STATE, I AM ALL FOR PEACEFUL PROTESTS, BUT IF THIS TURNS OUT TO BE PEOPLE WHO HATE REPUBLICANS ,ETC, WHO CAUSED THIS HEINOUS ACT, I CONDEMN THAT FULLY!THIS KIND OF MADNESS AND EVIL IS NOT ACCEPTABLE***

Now, I don’t live in la la land. Violence and murder have plagued all generations from the very beginning of the United States, as well as the rest of the world. But NOW it seems as though people have lost all sense of compassion for one another, all sense of right and wrong, or simply being “human”

Again this hatred and violence certainly did NOT begin under our current administration. The attacks and unfair treatment and unfair murders of our nations ethnic groups , primarily blacks, began long ago, and hit a fever pitch in the last couple of years. Although its been going on for years, the use of cell phone imagery simply has now made us more aware of it. So many people are dead and police continue to evade punishment which sends the message our lives aren’t worth as much as our fellow Americans

LET ME REMIND YOU, THAT IS WHAT #TAKEAKNEE is about. It is and was about unfair and unjust treatment. It is NOT about a flag that is fabric, not about a song that is words. IT IS ABOUT PEOPLE. Now if you cannot understand that and you are still stuck on making it about the flag and about the song THEN SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH YOU.

Everyone talks about being proud to be an American, if you as a parent had a child who was causing harm, and mistreatment and murder and theft of other people, WOULD YOU STILL BE PROUD OF YOUR CHILD? Sure your child would still be your child, but would you really be proud of them? So why is it that so many American’s cannot grasp the reason why ethnic groups ARE NOT PROUD right now to be American? If only you could truly see the history , and the big picture, but I digress.

The violence in Orlando, Paris, Las Vegas, Charlottesville. and so many other places comes from such hatred and lack of understanding that we are ALL HUMAN. I do not know what caused the attacks in Vegas last night , hopefully we soon will. But what I do know is Terrorism and hate have become as common now as having a Pop Tart for breakfast and that is a sad , terrible thing for us.

We are now killing each other REGULARLY because we don’t like someone’s color, someones sexuality, someones’s belief’s or lifestyle choices. I don’t like a lot of things people do and believe in , but I would NEVER harm people because of those differences.

True indeed, as mentioned hate, killings, racial and social injustices have plagued mankind throughout history, so have natural disasters, such as hurricanes etc, but it seems as if God, Aliens, whatever you believe in , whatever you believe is responsible for our planet and our creation etc, is trying to tell us something and no one is listening. Everyone just goes on with their day, with no real social conscience and that in itself is sad. WE as Americans whether you want to admit it or not elected someone who even if they were not full of hate and bigotry had NO idea how to run a country. Yet everyone believed the “Make America Great Speech”. He has insulted and mistreated the Island of Puerto Rico, He has ok’d use of brutal force and wants to allow the police more weapons, He sees NO issue with Americans having personal artillery and guns, and he Tweets to antagonize and separate people each day. He tweets to worry about NFL players when he should be worrying about loss of life. He tweets to argue with North Korea , which is likely to not end well for anyone. THEN HE REMEMBERS TO GET AROUND TO ADDRESSING ATTACKS, DEATHS AND MISERY. Oh but when he doe’s he seems to always put a spin on it to make it a way to create MORE HATE , more division instead of encouraging unity for all people.

I could go on and on and on , for instance the changes in the sexual assault on college campuses issue and the transgender military ban etc but I’ll let it go.

MY POINT IS IN A TIME WHEN PEOPLE HAVE TOTAL DISREGARD FOR LIFE , FOR EACH OTHER, WE NEED TO REMEMBER WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEINGS, THAT IT IS WRONG TO KILL, HARM OR SHAME OTHERS BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFERENT THAN US. THAT WE ALL NEED TO GO BACK TO THE GOLDEN RULE, DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU!

People everywhere NEED OUR PRAYERS, our thoughts, our help whatever it is you believe in.
Stop hating each other and accept that we all have the right to be different.

GOD BLESS EVERYONE IN VEGAS! I Hope this is handled with the care and kindness and unselfishness it should be.
Please if you are there. Check in and let all of us know you are ok
I truly didn’t mean to get political at all on this, but I am just so sick of nothing but hate, death and violence becoming our norm and no one owning it that I just had to speak on it.
